A Night for Rhino Conservation: $17,885.17 Raised for Our Partners in Zululand

April 24th 2025 | GCF News & Impact

On behalf of the entire Global Conservation Force team, we are thrilled to share the success of our latest fundraising event — a powerful evening dedicated to rhino conservation, education, and community impact.

Thanks to our incredible supporters, donors, volunteers, and team members, we raised an inspiring $17,885.17 in total support for our partners at Zululand Conservation Trust (ZCT) and Zululand Rhino Orphanage (ZRO).

  • $12,885.17 was raised directly through event night fundraising

  • $5,000 was contributed from Global Conservation Force’s program support funds

  • Total: $17,885.17 now on its way to the field

These funds will directly support the ongoing protection of rhinos. ZCT and ZRO are on the frontlines of conservation, providing long-term care for orphaned rhinos, supporting ranger teams, investing in local communities, and implementing innovative anti-poaching and monitoring efforts.

A Team Effort

 

Our heartfelt thanks go out to the GCF team, whose dedication and behind-the-scenes efforts made the evening smooth, seamless, and impactful. From coordinating merchandise and media, to guest support and logistics, each person played a crucial role in creating a memorable and meaningful experience for everyone who attended.

 

To our community of supporters — whether you’ve been with us for years or just discovered our mission — we thank you for standing with us. Your generosity makes a real, measurable impact on the ground.

 

Continuing the Story

 

We’re also proud to offer private, in-home viewing access to The Last Ranger, a moving documentary that captures the realities of wildlife protection in the field. Through a special agreement with filmmaker and GCF supporter David Lee, we are now able to provide exclusive access to this film as a way to continue rallying support and telling the story of those risking everything to protect endangered wildlife.
